Scientific Christmas Party
_ betic children from all parts of the state, made possible by the
generosity of the Doctors’ Wives’ Association and _ other
friends of the hospital. ,
Each child received a regular invitation and there was a
place card at each plate. The recreation and_ entertainment
provided for the youngsters was identically the same as that
at any other children’s Christmas party. There was candy, the
diabetic kind, heaping plates of water ice and other non-caloric food.
The party was under the direction of Dr. Mary Olney of
the department of pediatrics, who conducted the west’s first
camp for diabetic children in Napa county last summer. The
dietary features were attended to by Miss Alice Henry, head
nurse of “H Ward’ which has come to mean Health Ward to
the little diabetics of the state. More than 25 guests attended
‘and some of them came from points hundreds of miles removed from the hospital. .
_ The discovery of insulin and its refinement into protamine zinc insulin, are the two developments of medical science
which have made this Christmas party possible-—ContributVocational Training

Vocational guidance of youth is becoming more popular
and schools are developing new techniques and facilities for
this purpose, according to Dr.’ J. Harold Williams, professor
of education, and dean of the summer session, on the Los Angeles campus of the University of California. He is a former
president of the California Educational Research and Guidance Association.
. Speaking at a meeting of the Kiwanis Club, he declared
that every civilized country is giving serious consideration to
the vocational adjustment of youth, with special reference to
their possible contributions to the social order which is most
favored. In the totalitarian states, this guidance is largely identified with the policy of regimentation, but even under the
conditions it is recognized that human aptitude and potential
ities are diverse, and diagnostic procedures are employed to
determine what particular type of service to the state a given
child is most capable of rendering.
“Englapd has provided occupational advice for youth,
on a national scale, but in a democratic fashion,” said Dr.
Williams. ‘Advisory committees are available, under the Ministry of Labor, and with the cooperation of the National Instituté for Industrial Psychology. A recent follow up revealed
that among those who accepted the advice, successes were . .
times. as frequent as among those who did not do so.
“School authorities in the United States are so desirous
of avoiding dictation and regimentation that they have pro_ ceeded cautionsly in the development of guidance programs.
Emphasis is placed upon the decisions which a child may be
_ encouraged to make for himself, and care is taken to avoid
early fixational objectives. In view of recent evidence that
Most persons are capable of the successful pursuit of several
occupations, and in consideration of present employment uncertainties, most schools in the United States emphasizes oc_Cupational information, and encourage children to learn about
several vocations. At the same time, use is made of personal
interviews, test results, interest ratings, and records of educa__ tional achievements to determine the general areas which
_.seem most promising for individual pupils.”—Contributed.

SANTA CLAUS IS COMING
(By Joe M. Swazey)
Happy tots with eager faces
Going through their daily paces—
Being—oh! so awfully good,
Doing everything they should.
Helping Ma clean ‘up the dishes,
Seeing Pa gets what he wishes;
My! but things are sure a-humming,
*Cause old Santa Claus is coming.
Up and off for school by eight,
Back home again by four;
Kids wouldn’t think of being late,
Might make old Santa sore—
‘And gosh! that wouldn’t do,
you know,
Never in the world, no—no!
“Cause he’s the One who makes the
toys
For all good little girls and boys.
Way up North in Toyland
He makes kiddies presents grand;
Hauls them down in his. big sleigh,
For good little children Christmas
day. :
And when you hear those sleigh
bells ring,
You'll know being good’s the only
thing;
Lots of presents for Mom and Pop,
Little stockings filled to the top—
Gee! but things are sure a-humming,
"Cause old Santa Claus is coming!

Purlee of Chicago and Billie Skates
of San Pedro, Mr. and Mrs. J. Skates
